President Donald Trumps top workplace civil rights official is specifically calling on white men to report race and sex discrimination against them.
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission acting chair Andrea Lucas posted a video on social media this month asking: Are you a white male who has experienced discrimination at work based on your race or sex?
The agency, established under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, enforces federal anti-discrimination laws in hiring and in the workplace, where employers are prohibited from discriminating against an applicant or employee on the basis of race, religion, sex, skin color, national origin, age, disability or genetic information.
Lucas a prominent critic of diversity, equity and inclusion efforts who opposes civil rights protections for transgender Americans said white men may have a claim to recover money under federal civil rights laws. Contact EEOC as soon as possible, she said in a video, which has been viewed nearly six million times. EEOC is identifying, attacking and eliminating all forms of race and sex discrimination, including against white male applicants and employees.
